If you want one thats unlocked go through Apple but if you want one for your self just call around and it won't be hard to find one. I broke my torch and Bestbuy was my first stop since it was close to my buddies place and like I said they had tons.

I wouldn't order any phones from apple.ca for flipping purposes, the window to flip these phones for a decent profit has passed.

^^^ probably still worthwhile if going overseas.

The reservation system and locked iphones have made this launch really easy for me to get a hold of one, even with the people flipping them.

You'll find better deals on CL for new and sealed unlocked phones if you want to sell overseas.

the unlocked market will always be in demand until iphone comes out in china. you just need to find the people shipping back to china.

100% of my customers have been mainlanders/hongers.

a lot of low ball brown guys, like seriously. 900 for 32gig. lol. 800 for a 16gig.

anyone do a hardware upgrade from rogers??? so i spoke to retentions last week twice to get my contract all set up (i'm switching from a berry plan) and both times they told me early upgrade fee was $80. i reserved a phone from futureshop and went there Friday, when they pulled up my account upgrade fee was $260..wtf!?!?! so had to call rogers again and they said early upgrade fees were calculated wrong last week by their computer system and he said it should actually be $200 not $260 but he knocked it down to $150.
Fucking Rogers!!! It's like theyre pulling these numbers out of their ass!!!

guys FYI, I JUST sold 11 16gigs at 865 each bulk order.

and sold a single 16gig at 880.

there are buyers, don't submit to low ballers. the original 900 i wanted is hard to get now, but 880 seems to be the price ppl still willing to pay.

surprised people are still able to flip them...i guess apple is too rich to care about people making profit over their phones...creates more hype i guess
i know someone who flipped a shit tons of iphone 4 when it first came out and amassed 5 figures... must've bought out an entire apple store
or hijacked a truckloads worth...F&F style

Opened both of mine toc check if there were any knicks or scratches on them and what do you know, they both look like they're a few months old lulz. Too lazy to try and sell them now plus I doubt anyone will want to buy it anymore given that they're no longer sealed. Meh.

The black is hands down. In fact quite a few black ones came scratched out of the box.
